Rising Oil Prices Test Asia’s Energy Resilience
(MENAFN) Asian countries are experiencing pressure as the US-Israel conflict with Iran drives global crude costs above $100 per barrel.
In India, officials report that fuel rates remain stable for the time being, as the government depends on a variety of supply sources and strategic petroleum reserves.

In Australia, authorities have advised citizens against panic buying amid accounts that farmers are accumulating diesel. Energy Minister Chris Bowen emphasized that the country continues to maintain robust reserves, stating, “The fundamentals are good in that Australia has a good supply.”
